Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and prepare a 9-inch springform pan wrapped in aluminum foil.
  2. Combine the Oreo crumbs and melted butter in a bowl. Press this mixture firmly into the base and slightly up the sides of the springform pan.
Making the filling
  1. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Gently fold in the sour cream and vanilla extract, followed by the eggs one at a time.
  3. Divide the batter into three bowls, adding cocoa powder to one, melted semi-sweet chocolate to another, and both white and milk chocolates to the third.
Baking
  1. Alternate pouring spoonfuls of each chocolate batter over the crust, swirling to create a marbled effect.
  2. Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan and pour hot water around it. Bake for 60-70 minutes until edges are set and the center is slightly wobbly.
  3. Turn off the oven and crack the door open, allowing the cheesecake to cool in the oven for one hour.
Chilling and Serving
  1. Chill the cheesecake overnight in the refrigerator.
  2. Before serving, top each slice with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, and fresh berries.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth filling. Avoid overmixing when swirling the chocolate mixtures.
